The Colorado Jazz Repertory Orchestra (CJRO) returns to the Lone Tree Arts Center for an evening of live jazz that will delight its listeners. From Counts to Dukes, jazz has a long lineage of royalty and heirs, and a fresh take on many of these greats will be heard when the CJRO big band takes the stage. Songs featured include a new arrangement of “Take the A Train,” Billy Strayhorn’s beautiful ballad “Come Sunday,” and Count Basie’s “In a Mellow Tone.” Award-winning vocalist Marion Powers will be featured along with the full orchestra.
The recommended age for this performance is 6 years or older. At the request of the group, please do not bring infants or toddlers.
Founded in 2012 by bandleader, Art Bouton, with a mission to perform the best music with the best musicians, the Colorado Jazz Repertory Orchestra does just that and more. Exciting world-renowned guest artists and many of the finest regional musicians perform everything from rollicking big band classics to contemporary large and small ensemble jazz to enthusiastic concertgoers across Colorado. Audiences have heard the CJRO perform music from Count Basie, Billie Holiday, Stan Kenton, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, Stevie Wonder, and Buddy Rich as well as original arrangements by CJRO composers and other contemporary artists.
